Damn You, Willis! (Dumbing of Age) PART 2

Probably because it is a mode of speech they have developed with each other for years, so it is more personal to them. We've seen Sal speak to her in ASL before. Also, it forces her to be more deliberate with her words.

Also a fair point. A lot of people don't figure this stuff out until way older than these kids are, but considering their relationship, one would think there would at least be some inkling by now and Sal's reaction when Marcie explained her motivations toward Malaya suggest the idea of being with a woman is not even a blip on her radar. I don't think she has used the exact phrasing, but she has strongly implied it.
LeeC:
So is a "fakey" just the modern colloquial term for a "poser?"

Yeah, basically fronting as something/someone that you aren't.
sitnspin:
Not so much a modern colloquialism as much as Malayaism.
And it's been my experience that the louder and more frequently a person talks about and makes accusations of being a poser, the more likely said person is one.

I think that Sal knew that Marcie was homosexual; she expressed no surprise when Marcie told her that she was sexually attracted to Malaya. What was a totally-out-of-left-field revelation for Sal was that Marcie had ever been attracted to her.
